All the AT&T voices work with JFW.  NextUp is the best place to get them.
There is a link on the nextUp site to hear demos of the voices.  It is
cheaper to buy one of their products and have the AT&
T voices bundled wit.   You will have to wait for a CD as the AT&T voices
can't be  downloaded directly.  You can, however install just the voices and
not the nextUp product.


All that being said,  I did this a while back .  I think the sound of the
AT&T voices is very good as long as you don't speed them up too much.  I
like my speech to run much faster than that so I switched back to Eloquence.
You can switch back and forth with no problems.  You can set different
voices for different things, but all the voices have to belong to the same
synth.

Hope this helps,

JP

Hello, ok then. I have many questions. Here they go. Can all of the Natural
voices, plus the Cepstral voices, be used as voices for Jaws? If so, can you
give direct links? I went to the Premier Programming site, looked at
products, and found no individual package of the natural voices. Is there
any way to just install these voices without any other news reader program
or anything? I don't need a news group program or any other reading program.
If I can't avoid buying the news aloud program, then can I just uninstall it
and never use it, or do the voices rely on the program to keep afloat? If I
need these news programs anyhow, is the easiest place the Next Uptech site,
where I can get all of the voices? Are you sure these can work with Jaws,
because I wouldn't want to buy these and find that they don't work? Also,
Can I hear a quick demo of the voices so I can decide on which ones I like?
Do I have to purchase a cd of them and wait for the mail, or can I download
them right away? Thanks a lot. Matthew
